My Summary
About Me
With 12 years of rich experience in the field of early childhood education, I have dedicated my career to nurturing the minds of children aged 3 months to 5 years. My educational approach is a unique blend of Montessori and Reggio Emilia philosophies, emphasising child-led learning, creativity, and the development of critical thinking skills.
As a native Italian speaker, who can also speak French and Spanish at an intermediate level, I bring a multicultural dimension to my teaching, enabling children to explore and appreciate different languages and cultures from an early age. My sporty nature and passion for eco-friendliness are integral to my teaching style, encouraging children to lead active, healthy, and environmentally conscious lives.
Empathy, patience, and a relentless pursuit of innovative teaching methods define my approach. I continuously seek new ways to engage young minds, fostering a love for learning that extends beyond the classroom.
As an advocate for men in childcare, I am actively involved in campaigning for increased male participation in early years education. This advocacy stems from my belief in diversifying the childcare sector and changing the industry narrative to be more inclusive and representative.
My commitment to excellence in childcare has been recognised through an Outstanding rating during my tenure as a nursery manager and an Employee of the Year award in my company. These accolades reflect my dedication to not only meeting but exceeding the standards of early childhood education. I also have 2 years of experience as an Ofsted-registered childminder.
In my role as an educator, I strive to create a nurturing, stimulating, and inclusive environment for every child, ensuring that their first educational experiences are both enriching and enjoyable.

My dedication indicates a strong commitment to the well-being and educational advancement of children in their formative years.
IOSH qualified – acute attention to health and safety: Holding an IOSH (Institution of Occupational Safety and Health) qualification demonstrates my proficiency in ensuring a safe and healthy environment for children. This is crucial in childcare, as it involves maintaining high standards of safety, recognising potential hazards, and implementing preventive measures to protect children from injuries or health risks in educational settings.
